Looks OK to me, and ddx is a fairly common maker of these. How much is the seller asking as it sounds like you are thinking of buying it??

70 times 1.62 = $113.40. ???

I think that Sarco is listing them a little cheaper for a German marked one. But the one that you are showing is nice and I don't know how different the pricing is in GB due to the import problems.

Well I always buy at shows and have never paid that much, but its not out of court. Try and negotiate him down to maybe £55-60?

Let us know how it turns out! Good luck!

Would this also work on a MG.42?

You can buy 2 drums and the carrier for about £150 so it makes £70 for 1 drum seem a little steep to me. Admittedly the £150 option is the Russian repainted ones.
